leetcode 37. Sudoku Solver

1.题目

Write a program to solve a Sudoku puzzle by filling the empty cells.

Empty cells are indicated by the character '.'.

You may assume that there will be only one unique solution.

A sudoku puzzle...

求解数独。。。

2.思路 

利用递归，先放一个数在格子上，如果合格，再放下一个格子，如果不合格，回溯。

class Solution {
public:
    bool isValid(vector<vector<char>>& board,int position) { //测试当前position位置上的数是否合法
    int row = position/9;
    int col = position%9;
    int gid = (row/3)*3 + col/3; //第(row/3*3 + col/3)个小方块的起始位置

    for(int i=0;i<9;i++)
    {
        //check row
        if(i != col && board[row][i] == board[row][col])
            return false;
        
        //check col
        if(i != row && board[i][col] == board[row][col])
            return false;
        
        //check subgrid
        int r = gid/3*3+i/3;
        int c = gid%3*3+i%3;
        if((r != row || c != col) && board[r][c] == board[row][col])
            return false;
    }
    return true;
}
bool solve(vector<vector<char>>& board,int position){
    if(position == 81)
        return true;
    
    int row = position/9;
    int col = position%9;
    
    if(board[row][col] == '.')
    {
        for(int k=1;k<=9;k++)
        {
            board[row][col] = k + '0';
            if(isValid(board,position))
                if(solve(board,position+1))
                    return true;
        }
        board[row][col] = '.';
        return false;
    }
    else return  solve(board,position+1);
}

void solveSudoku(vector<vector<char>>& board) {
    solve(board,0);
}
};
